ACUPUNCTURE
Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese medicine that uses needles on specific points of the body to treat various ailments. When needles are inserted into the skin, the nervous system treats the point as a micro-injury. Acupuncture works by triggering the brain to release endorphines, the body’s natural pain killers. Results of treatment include a feeling of calm and well-being, reducing inflammation and stimulation of circulation.

CUPPING THERAPY
Cupping therapy is also an ancient form of medicine in which a therapist will put cups on the skin to create suction. That suction facilitates healing by increasing blood flow to the area. It is done to help with chronic pain and inflammation and can result in a feeling of well-being and relaxation, benefits similar to a deep tissue massage.

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING A TREATMENT
You can book an Acupuncture session or Cupping session separate from each other, or your session may include a combination of both. Our Acupuncturist, Kelsey, will start with a consultation to determine the best treatment plan for whatever it is you are coming in for.
